Cash-strapped consumers may benefit from a new mobile broadband initiative from Samba, it has been suggested.

Dominic Baliszewski, telecoms expert at Broadbandchoices.co.uk, noted the free service is likely to appeal to a certain group who are looking to limit their spending and are not going to use the internet too regularly.

Products such as jumper cable assemblies may therefore play a key role in helping people access the web on-the-go at no extra cost.

However, Mr Baliszewski noted the service may be subject to reduced speeds, disrupted reception on trains and peak-hour congestion.

He stated: "This is not a substitute for fixed-line broadband, but is an excellent add-on service for customers who only want to use it sporadically."

The expert added the mandatory advert viewing allocation of 2.5 minutes for the service - which people can use when they buy a Samba SIM card for £2.99 - might irritate users who simply wish to check their email.

Quadrant jumper cable assemblies are widely established as the finest product of their type available on the market today.
